Chapter 01: A Gift From Death

"Avada Kedavra" Come a cry that echoed the night.

Harry James Potter, turns his head to see the deadly green light rushing towards him. He heard the cry and he didn't need to see the face of the caster. He look into the face of his best friend and the person who he thought of as a brother.

Ron Weasley, had a smile on his face the moment Harry let his guard down.

Harry should have expected this. Ron hated living in the shadows of others. Now that Harry defeated the Dark Lord Voldemort and claimed the powers of the three Hallows Ron wanted that power and fame for himself.

Harry was a fool, he thought Ron had moved past such petty emotions and thought their friendship meant more to him instead of fame and riches.

Harry knew the spell was coming at him and he didn't have time to counter attack. He needed to make sure Ron did not obtain the power of the hallows. Instead of raising his want to defend himself, he quickly pointed the Elder Wand at himself and whisper the two deadly words.

"Avada Kedavra" Harry whispered as the green light erupted from the elder wand.

Harry knew at once where he was. He felt this feeling once before. Back when Voldemort first killed him.

Harry opens his eyes to see he was exactly where he met Dumbledore. He gets up and looks around only to see there was no Dumbledore.

"Hello Harry Potter." A mystic voice said. Harry looks up to see a figure wearing black robes float down before him.

"Hello."

"You did a noble thing, when you cease to end the powers of the Hallows. Now they can return to me and I have the right to keep them away from the darkness of men."

"You're eyes, are you alright?" Harry asks as he notices a cloth was wrap around where her eyes should be.

"My eyes, I haven't had eyes since the birth of man. Never had any use for them. As for your question yes I'm fine. Thank you Mr. Potter for asking. Now, I am here to offer you an ordeal."

"An Ordeal, what do you mean. I died. Shouldn't I, I don't know, move on to the next great adventure?"

"You are interesting Harry. Not many would accept death so willingly. Even at old age. Most try to barter deals so they live on. Others like Tom Riddle III try to cheat death. In the end all must come to me. You however, you have… how is it that you humans say it… peak my interest."

"What do you mean?" Harry asks.

"So many times you could have become like Tom Riddle. Yet you chose not to be. You also welcome death many times. Truth be told, I was not expecting you to take your own life. You showed me… great honor."

"So what will happen?"

"I told you, I'm going to give you an ordeal."

"What does that mean?" Harry asks.

"Your life here has ended. However, I can give you a new life. In one of the multiverses that exists. Just like how magic is real here, in this verse you will be born anew. Its because of certain special conditions that allow me to make this ordeal with you."

"Because of the Horucrux inside of me?"

"That's one of the reasons. You chose to lead a pure life of being right instead of the temptation of evil."

"Why me?"

"I just told you why."

"No, I meant why do you want me to go to this other plane?"

"You must understand, I do not care, love or feel hate towards anyone. My first priory is foremost and always has been, the balance of the life and death. However this plane I'm about to send you is on the verge of self-destruction. If it ends, then the multiverse could fall apart. They are many heroes in this world, they just need someone to lead them to the right path. I want you to be champion. However there are rules."

"What rules?"

"Never tell anyone you come from another world."

"That is for the best. However what am I supposed to say? I mean there are going to be people who are interested in who I really am."

"I have, alter memories so that you have that covered." She said as she handed Harry a piece of paper.

"This is my history."

"That's right, all you need to prove your history."

"I doubt I can go there with my wand and wave magic around."

She smiles, it wasn't cold or chilling nor was it reassuring.

"You are correct, part of the deal for you to go to this world is for you to be strip of your magic. However in return for losing your magic, you will be granted new abilities. Be warn, you will only have a limited choice on your abilities."

"How limited."

"You only get five picks on what your power and abilities are."

"What do you mean?" Harry says in a slow voice.

Instead of answering she gives a smile. Then images appeared to Harry as if he was looking at a computer screen. They showed a list of people wearing costumes and masks. Some were funny looking.

"You may choose your main power along with three side powers and abilities."

"How do I see their abilities?"

"Just say what you want. You can even touch the imagines and it will show you what their strengths and weaknesses are."

"Okay I think I got it. My main power. Hmm, well I need to be fast." Harry said. The screen stop moving up and down and quickly it showed a list of fast and super-fast people. "I also need to be strong. Like able to lift a car strong." The screen killed a few more people off the list and Harry looks at that.

"Can I do a cross main attribute. So my main powers are not exact duplicates of someone else's."

Death gives a nod and Harry immediately began to look at the list.

"Those who can fight close range and well as long range."

The listen shorted to ten people.

"Who had a similar past to mine before I knew I was special?"

The list rearrange itself and Harry could see a man wearing a strange mask with lines on it on the top. Harry presses the image and the screen shoved the others images to the side.

"Peter Benjamin Parker; Current Age 17. Senior at Midtown High School of New York City. Lost his parents at a young age and was bullied for most of his life until he got bitten by a radioactive spider that transformed his genes into a super human. Fast, Agile, Strong possess a sixth sense known as a spider-sense that warns him of danger. He has called himself Spiderman and lives by the code 'With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility' to fight common crooks and villains. Even some super villains. Highly intelligent he created his own web fluid to help himself fight crime."

Harry selects the Spider Powers finding them interesting and he looks at the next guy on the list.

"Captain Steven 'Steve' Rogers of the United States Army Special Forces. Captain and leader of the original Howling Commando's. He fought and defeated a dangerous organization of the Nazi's known as Hydra. Before enlisted in the army Steve Rogers had poor health and was bullied his entire life. Pick as a part of a government top secret science to become a super soldier. Strong, fast, has high level of endurance and stamina as well as a skilled and great combatant. Captain Steve Rogers was the world's first great super hero known as Captain America." Harry mutters as he looks at the super soldier serum.

"So I can combine Captain America's Super Soldier Serum and Spiderman's Spider Powers."

Death gives a smile and Harry could feel something strange. It was like his muscles and organs were being tortured from the inside. It seem to go on for an eternity until it stop and Harry looks around realizing his eye sight had not only improved but seem to be at the peak of human physiology. He also felt healthier, stronger and powerful.

"Okay, time for number two. I don't need to look at someone's screen. I know what I want. I want to be a renowned genius like Hermione." Harry knew what was coming and his mind was racing as if it was being rebooted. Once it stop Harry knew at once he was smart. He could think faster and already had ideas. Harry shoved his thoughts aside realizing how much easier it was for him.

"I'm going to be fighting people perhaps stronger and faster than me. This means I'm going to get injured, like a lot. If my life is going to be on the line then I need to have, a healing ability."

A screen pops up showing several people with healing factor. The first was a man wearing a mask. Harry presses his imagine.

"Wolverine. One of the oldest mutants alive. Wolverine has a healing factor that activates no matter where he goes. He has survived the Hiroshima Nuclear Bomb Drop without any side effects done to his body. He has survived in many situations where many should have died."

"That I'll take." Harry said and he could feel his body changing as healing itself from any self-damage.

"The other is not a power, but I need to be skilled in martial arts, I need to be a good fighter as well stealth."

Harry could feel years of training, years of honing his skills entering his mind. Harry looks up and the images where gone and death was standing before him.

"So I'm going to be a hero?" Harry said in a slow voice.

"Or a villain. The choice is up to you. You can be good or bad."

"How will I have a start in life? My gold is lock up tight in gringotts." Harry said.

"Not to worry, all your income has been transferred into British Pounds. So in other words, you're quite the little billionaire."

'Billion?!" Harry said in shock.

"I know no one told you, but your ancestor was Ignotus Peverell. You came from a successful family, and every successful family has a habit of gaining fortune every time a new generation appears. You were one of the wealthiest wizards of your society. Now it is time for you to go, take my gifts and use them well."

"Wouldn't it seem strange if I just pop up somewhere?" Harry said.

"I have alter the memories of the world and created your past so you won't have much trouble."

"Thank you." Harry said.

"For?"

"Giving me a second chance." Harry said simply.

Death gave Harry a smile, this one was filled with emotion.

"You will start alone, but a word of advice. You will always find friends in the world you're going. My advice, be the hero, find a girl, fall in love have a family. It's more than you deserve." Death said. A bright light filled Harry's eyes and the next thing Harry knew was Death was gone.

"Lord Potter, are you feeling alright?"

Harry looks up to see a beautiful Japanese girl sitting across from him.

"Yeah, just thinking." Harry said.

"Need I remind you that tomorrow we'll arrive in New York City and as the new CEO and Owner of WebCorps you need to focus." She said.

"Kasumi, I appreciate your concern but I'm okay." Harry said.

Harry leans back on the plane seat and smiles. He had information and knowledge as well as skills. It seem Death did a lot for him. Though he couldn't figure out what she expected.

Death was right about several things, he was alone. But he needed to find allies, those that would help him save this world from the doom that was coming.
